Remove the anti-snowball from 2v8 NOW! It's being heavily abused by survivors!
Players are letting gens 99% to bypass this crap and pop 3 or 4 of them in a row or after some hooks so they don't get slow gen speed.
If you find a gen at 99% you have to kick it and stay in the area a little while or else the gen could be popped and with that you can't get into chases or go to another part of the map to check other gens.
Even a duo of killers with high mobility can't be at all the places at the same time.
It doesn't help that you guys doubled everything EXCEPT the gen charges. It takes 540 charges in 1v4 to complete all 5 gens and 560 to all 8 in 2v8.

Great idea! Let’s make those queue times even longer!

The issue with queue times is the lack of new things for survivor.
Legion got removed and the queues are exactly the same. Almost every iteration we have new killers and maps, but survs get ZERO classes, items or whatever.
Also if 2v8 is suppose to be this turbo gen simulator that's being these days then you can go ahead and shut it down and never bring it back.0 -
How dare people "abuse" smart plays.

I have to agree that this is playing smart much like killers tunneling survs out to also bypass this crap.
Another reason for the crutch to be removed.-4 -
I'm not exactly a fan of this kind of efficient metagaming but I'm glad others are finally catching on.
yellow bars for all!

Come on man.
Aren't killers suffering enough already in 2v8? :(-1 -

changes aren't made in a vacuum; mechanics like the comeback system affect player bhvr, in this case makes them 99 gens. if that got removed surely the gen speeds would be looked at.
or maybe instead of hooks it could work based off deaths to encourage spreading out hooks, a grave sin for killers in 2v8.

EXACTLY!
In 2v8 the gens could skyrocket AFTER someone dies.
If you're not Lilith Omen you can't 16 hooks before start killing survs or you'll lose by a gigantic margin.2 -
While yes Survivor should be getting new classes (Boon Class Devs cough) and a if possible Rework to guide class since it doesn't do anything but be a meme class.
Furthermore Legion being removed has made a positive effect on making matches more tolerable and making people want to continue playing 2v8 where as last iteration after facing 50 legions matches and never wanting to touch the mode ever again.
Ps oh yeah we can bring back fog Crystals or bring back herbs for RPD map only in 2v8

The gens will skyrocket because there is -2,5% speed each time gen is compleated and +2,5% repair speed when 2 survivors are caged I think so only smart and evil play is to tunnel some survviors fast early on because having 1 or 2 survivors dead on 4 gens left is way better than having one hook on every survivor and one guy is dead hook. So best way to actualy get much higher chance to win and have no fear from preforming to well so survivors will just get speed bonus to gens and rush you in no time is to tunnel in 2v8 too sadly.

NO!
Never bring these accursed herbs EVER AGAIN unless some changes are made.
This mode is basically auto-pilot for survs already while the killers are only two steps to get a mental breakdown after every match on how much stuff they need to do and manage.That's what I do.
Hard tunnel. There's no way to win 2v8 as killer without doing it unless the survs are actually people with 48 IQ.
When I realized survs need to do only 6 1v4 gens to escape it made me SO MAD…-2 -
lol my survivor games are full of people with 20IQ

it's actually +2.5% per cage, -5% per gen

Still it favors survivors near endgame and if they have numbers they can rush you, I would get it if this worked to some gen number and cage number and then it would shut of compleatly and be just normal repair speed without any buffs (or debuffs but near gates on few gens left this still wont help killers).
Just had so many games where I preformed great with killer I played with and still we got rushed and minimaly twice more where killers snowball us and it looked we will loose on 5 gens left some even dc but still we rushed it to gates and got 4+ survviors out on average which is nuts but real. What annoys me more are killers that are underpowered like nemesis or slinger,trapper,ghostface because if you look at their buffs funnily strongest or stronger killers got biggest buffs and the weaker ones or mid killers got smalles like on sliger you got only some reload addon which isnt even the best of its kind and reeling speed addon into your kit dam even nemi hasnt marvins blood which is mystery to me why when survivors cure way more often than in 1v4 and he needs not only tier 2 fast but tier 3 asap because in 2v8 his tenticle is joke comapre to huntress hatchets.

Survivor is basically auto-pilot in 2v8 now and indeed only half the killer roster is viable.
1 -
I agree from killers only half is playable and for survivor team to not get 4 or minimaly 2 escapes it requires bad decisions from survivors and less skill or bad rng, for killers mostly huge skill from duo and coordination so they dont leave space for survivors to rush them.
I had game where oni with nurse (probably best I have seen in long time she missed few blinks that match but all her blinks were successful on me exept one) had massive snowball nurse just hit everyone and oni got power fast and kept getting it very often through the match especialy early on, we had like first survivors dead hook on 6 gens left and almost everyone exept like one or two survivors have been hooked once and still we rushed them with speed bonus and got 5 man out, they hardly got 3 kills and almost 4 but if there wasnt that speed buff then we would loose on 3 gens left max.

Already escaped in this kind of situation more than once.
Killers were pretty good and still were rewarded with a loss because of comeback for survs.1 -
The whole mechanic is kinda messed up TBH. It actually punishes killers for not tunneling and rewards them for tunneling since its about unique hooks. The best way for killers to deal with it is to just tunnel someone out instead of spreading hooks.

Sadly is what I do in every match. Hard tunnel.
Is that or you can't win at all.0
